THE Great and wonderful PREDICTIONS Of that late Famous Astrologer Mr. Lilly and Mr. Partridg and Mr. Coley concerning this present Year 1683. To which is added A true and faithful ACCOUNT OF THE Famous Prophecies of the three German Prophets Predicting and Foretelling some years since this present Invasion of the Turks into the Empire of Germany and Hungary with the events of the same to the admiration of all that shall hear or read the same Also their strange and wonderful Predictions concerning the Pope and the King of France With the total and sudden destruction of the Papal power and the miraculous Conversion of the Turks and Iews to the Christian Faith As also presaging the uniting of all Religions into one visible Church Which Prophecies have been had in esteem by many famous and illustrious persons of these times LONDON Printed for Iosh. Conyers at the black Raven in Duck-lane M DC LXXX III. Kind Reader WE here present thee with some remarkable Prophecies of that Ancient and Famous Astrologer Mr. William Lilly lately deceased concerning this great year 1683. predicted by him many years since in the year 1655. Saith he In the year eighty three Great Changes there will be In England But Long ere that time poor Merlin sleeps In 's Grave secure sad England weeps Left he no Heir unhappy Man That this obscurer Riddle can Vnfold No. In his Anglicus for 1677. he hath these words Those pretending to ●eligion or such as are famous for Schisms or Heresies or those of different judgment from that Religion Established by Authority for some years will grumble and repine for that restriction on their Consciences as they will term it and the nearer to the time of the Conjunction the more Confederations they will have either near the time of the Conjunction it self or a little after we fear great disturbance of those Nations and the Princes they live under disquieting their Governors this for Conscience sake as they pretend But in our Nation as before was expressed breach of the people's just priviledges antient customes and former injoyed rights will animate the generality to a strong and sturdy Rebellion and countenance that translation of Monarchy mentioned by Trithemius Again saith he Many believe the last Age of the World is at hand we verily conjecture That a troublesome and vexatious time is approaching upon most Nations of Europe wherein those pretending to Religion whether Papist or Protestant will shew little mercy or compassion to those persons whose un●appiness it will be to fall under their subjection God bless us from such a Reformation that must be advanced in the ruins of a well setled Government Mr. Partridg in his Astrological judgment on this year 1683. hath these words Saturn and Iupiter in conjunction in Leo are contriving to make themselves secure and to this end there are many and various endeavours used to convene those of the greatest and best policy to invent and contrive some new ways of Trade commerce and Government But methinks Saturn and Iupiter both peregrine look rather like Plotters than Statesmen and seem to be such as would rather overthrow a Kingdom Laws and Religion than secure any unless it be such as serves their own turn for you know that Highway men in their way are for self-preservation though the Law be directly against them and say they ought to be hanged Well let them plot on then they have the worst success that ever men had for what ever they contrive or consult it will be known to their enemy be it never so deep or Clandestine The great and wonderful Prophecies of the three German Prophets Christopher Kotterus Christiana-Pomatovia and Nicholas Drabicius WE present thee kind Reader with these remarkable Prophecies of the three German Prophets which have been highly esteemed of by the famous and illustrious persons of these times which some years since foretold the invasion of the Turks in Germany and the events of the same Also Predictions concerning the French King's Wars and the destruction of the Papal See of Rome with the conversion of Iews and Turks which take as followeth On the 11 th of Iune there first of all appeared an Angel in the shape of a Man to Kotterus which spake to him as followeth That the anger of God was kindled against mankind and that in fury he hastened to inflict punishment on them except they repent of their Pride and Impurity and for contempt of God and his Word After this he vanished The Prophecy concerning Rome is That the Lion of the Tribe of Iudah shall rore against the Whore of Babylon behold she is now falling but is not yet fallen but presently shall fall O thou cold thirsty and presumptuous City it is not the height nor strength of thy Walls shall defend thee behold the time is coming that thou shalt totter and thy horrid lies and false perverting of the Scriptures with thy spiritual fornications O you Kings you Princes and Potentates who do flatter her and drink the Wine of her impurities and partake of the Cup of her blasphemies Behold the dry and withered Tree of the East begins to shoot forth her leaves and her blushing knots but the trees of the North do stand unmoved Behold the Lion of the North begins to rouse himself and two other of the same colour do follow him that will pluck up the trees of the South Root and Branch O that thou hadst known the day of thy visitation but glory be to him that doth Wonders After a little silence the Angel said O Babylon fair but painted and destitute of true foundation false in thy Doctrine false in thy L●fe evil in thy Works two and forty Months shall quickly be expired and the three Days and half a Day shall come to an end and the spirit of life shall return into those whom thou O wicked Babylon hast murdered The five Months of thy Judgments will quickly be accomplished and then the Pope the Spouse of the Devil shall fall The Angel further said That besides the Devil the great adversary of the Church there are two others that shall destroy and tread down all things one of them doth not yet know the true God of whom he is now ignorant but shall know him for the time is at hand that he shall acknowledg the true God and shall accomplish his dec●ees against the great Whore sitting upon the hills above the Sea who is another trampler upon and destroyer of the Church whose remembrance is come in the sight of God to give her a cup of the Excandescence of his Anger he cares not for God nor doth God care for him for his time is almost past Then Kotterus demanded of the Angel Will there be a great effusion of Blood the Angel answered Yes for since Germany is so stubborn as not to pray to Almighty God to withdraw his Rod and heavy Hand held over it but doth more
